Snow drips from the eaves.
The girl stood there alone, holding the sword, motionless, like a dead statue without any emotion.
When Luo Qingzhou passed by.
She turned slightly and looked away.
Luo Qingzhou turned around and stood under the eaves with her side by side, watching the snow dripping outside.
A moment of silence.
He Fang said, "Miss Xia Chan is so capable, she shouldn't rely on growing flowers to make money. Miss Xia Chan's hands are for holding a sword, not a hoe."
The girl looked away with a cold face, as if she didn't hear anything.
Luo Qingzhou suddenly turned his head and looked at her and said, "Miss Xia Chan, turn your face away. I have something to tell you."
The girl's pretty face was still turned away, ignoring him.
Luo Qingzhou stared at her cold profile for a while, and suddenly said, "Xia Chan, Chan Chan, turn your little face away, your uncle has something to say to you."
The girl suddenly turned around and stared at him with cold eyes.
A chill came over me.
Luo Qingzhou remained motionless, facing her cold eyes, not panicking at all, and asked, "Do you like killing people?"
The girl stared at him coldly for a moment, and finally said coldly: "If you like it, I will kill you."
Luo Qingzhou: “…”
"No kidding. You were so powerful just now that two warriors were instantly killed by your sword. You just moved your hands and saved the entire Qin Mansion. So I think, with my intelligence and your invincible swordsmanship, I can definitely catch all the enemies and kill them all. What do you think, Miss Xia Chan?"
"snort."
The girl snorted coldly, turned her face away again, looked away, and ignored him.
Luo Qingzhou called out again: "Xia Chan, Chan Chan, what do you think?"
The girl suddenly turned her face away again, staring at him with cold eyes, one hand on the hilt of the sword.
Luo Qingzhou ignored her and leaned close to her and whispered, "I will be responsible for finding the murderer, and you will be responsible for killing one with your sword. The two of us will cooperate with each other and eliminate the threat to the Qin Mansion together. What do you say?"
The girl stared at him coldly for a while before speaking again: "I will not, take the initiative, kill anyone."
Luo Qingzhou was stunned for a moment, then understood: "You mean, you only protect the Qin family, and you kill the enemy when they come, but you won't take the initiative to go out and kill the enemy, right?"
The girl turned her face away and stopped talking.
Luo Qingzhou was silent for a moment, then said, "Okay, sorry to bother you."
He turned and left.
After he entered the house, the girl slowly turned her head in the shadow of the pillar and looked at the door where he disappeared. She puffed up her cheeks and muttered softly, "No, beg me..."
After dawn.
Qin Wenzhen, Qin Chuan and others rushed back with red eyes.
Song Ruyue wanted to ask about the situation over there, but Qin Wenzhen waved his hand, looked at the corpse in the yard, and his face suddenly changed.
Qin Chuan was also shocked when he saw this scene: "Mother, why are Guard Yang and the others all dead? Did an assassin come in after I left?"
Song Ruyue said with a gloomy face: "They are assassins and traitors! Xia Chan killed them when she was protecting me."
Qin Wen Zheng and his son's eyes, as well as the eyes of the guards, were all turned to the girl holding the sword under the eaves not far away.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's get someone to deal with the body. Nanny Sun has also been bribed and is not dead yet. I interrogated her all night last night but couldn't get any information out of her. You guys go and interrogate her."
Song Ruyue's voice was a little hoarse, obviously caused by the quarrel with Nanny Sun last night.
Miss Qin Er suddenly came out of the room and said, "Daddy, come in, Wei Mo has something to tell you."
Qin Wenzheng's expression changed. He walked up the stairs, looked back at the others, and said after a moment's hesitation, "Everyone must be tired after staying up all night last night. Let's go back to bed now. Butler Zhou, you will be responsible for checking the water and food in the mansion, and find a few more dogs to raise. You must check the food and drinks every day."
Butler Zhou immediately bowed his head and said, "Yes, Master."
When the maids and servants saw him coming back, they felt a little safer and left one after another to catch up on their sleep.
Qin Jianjia also walked out of the house, taking Bailing with her, and prepared to leave.
Qin Wen Zheng glanced at her, as if he wanted to say something to comfort her, but seeing her cold face, he didn't say anything.
Luo Qingzhou followed Miss Qin.
Xia Chan also walked out from under the eaves.
Song Ruyue walked up to Bailing and whispered, "Bailing, don't worry about the affairs of the mansion. You and Xia Chan just need to protect Jianjia, and... keep an eye on your son-in-law."
After saying that, he glanced at someone and went into the house.
Luo Qingzhou waved to Xiaodie beside him, and took her to follow Miss Qin to the backyard.
Glanced back.
Miss Qin Er was standing at the door looking at him. When she saw him looking at her, she smiled slightly.
That delicate and pale face can always make people feel gentle, warm and kind.
Luo Qingzhou couldn't help but recall the scene in her room last night.
If it weren't for the sudden interruption of his mother-in-law and the incident that happened in the home of the third master of the Qin family, he would probably have fallen into the gentle trap of the second Miss Qin last night and couldn't extricate himself.
How many men could remain unmoved by a woman like Miss Qin Er
"Sir, how do you thank me?"
While he was thinking about something, Bailing came over, blinked at him and asked in a low voice.
Luo Qingzhou was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion: "Why should I thank you?"
Bai Ling snorted coldly, moved closer to him, and whispered, "If you don't want others to know, then you better not do it yourself. Last night, someone punched and kicked everyone in the dark hall. Didn't he feel good? Humph, in the end, he let him take the blame. Too much!"
Luo Qingzhou didn't say anything else.
Bai Ling bumped his arm and pouted, "Sir, I'm asking you a question. How are you going to thank me?"
Seeing that no one was looking at him, Luo Qingzhou reached out and touched her little hand, and whispered, "Come to my place later, I'll give you something good."
Bai Ling was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly took a step back, pouted her lips and muttered: "My son-in-law wants to bully me again, I don't want you to succeed!"
Luo Qingzhou said: "I just wanted to give you some snacks."
When Bai Ling heard this, her face immediately turned pale: "No, I don't want it. If I eat my uncle's snacks, I might get pregnant. My uncle is so scared!"
Luo Qingzhou: “…”
He silently took out a paper bag from his pocket, opened it, took out a small piece of dessert from it, and handed it to Xiaodie beside him.
The little girl immediately took it happily and started eating, thinking to herself: If I can get pregnant with your child after eating your snack, I will be so happy.
Several people separated at the gate of Lingchan Moon Palace.
Before leaving, Luo Qingzhou looked at the cold girl and said, "Miss Xia Chan, stay indoors recently, don't go to work anymore, and protect the young lady well."
Xia Chan looked at him coldly without saying anything.
Luo Qingzhou said hello to Miss Qin and left with Xiaodie.
After the master and servant walked away, Bai Lingfang approached Xia Chan and asked curiously, "Chanchan, what did the uncle say to you in the hallway just now? At that time, I saw the uncle was almost clinging to you, whispering to you for a long time."
Xia Chan looked at the direction the two people left, was stunned for a moment, turned and went into the house without paying any attention to her.
After Luo Qingzhou returned to the courtyard, he asked Xiaodie to embroider at home.
He entered the house, his spirit left his body, passed through the house, floated over the roof, bathed in the morning sun, and looked down from above, carefully observing the entire Qin Mansion.
After observing for a long time and seeing nothing unusual, he returned to the house and regained consciousness.
I have to go out of the city to hunt monsters today.
He must continue to practice, advance as quickly as possible, and experience more life and death trials.
Only in this way can we increase our chances of killing the enemy.
Sitting in the mansion and waiting for the enemy to sneak in or massacre other members of the Qin family, passive resistance, is definitely not his style.
He decided to go to the Black Wood Forest to practice during the day, and then leave his body and visit Zhang's house at night.
After we find out where those people from the Song family are hiding, we will find a way to catch them all in one fell swoop, eradicate the roots and leave no one alive!
Anyone who threatens his current life must not be allowed to stay!
He read a book about the monsters in the Black Wood Forest in the house for a while. When he saw that no one came to disturb him, he went over to say something to Xiaodie and then left.
The Qin family is now in a panic, and everyone is hiding in the house and dares not come out.
There were only four guards left, and including Qin Chuan, they were not enough to patrol all places in the mansion.
But during the day, everyone feels more at ease.
Luo Qingzhou walked along the way and didn't meet many people.
When we reached the garden leading to the back door, we saw several servants holding weapons, guarding the garden gate and talking in low voices.
Luo Qingzhou took a detour, climbed over the wall next to him, quickly walked to the back door, opened the bolt, and went out.
After seeing that there was no one in the alley, he took out the mask and put it on his face.
Such a big thing happened last night. Everyone in the Qin Mansion gathered in the hall, but no one saw the little cousin named Nangong Meijiao.
I don’t know whether she was hiding or going somewhere else at that time.
Anyway, she is a distinguished guest from Kyoto and a member of the royal family, so Song Ruyue will definitely give her priority in settling her down.
I hope I don't meet her again today.
Last night, the entire family of the third master of the Qin family was massacred, and today the news quickly spread throughout the entire Mo City.
The whole city was shocked.
When the city lord Jiang Jinnan heard the news, he was extremely furious and immediately sent people to track down the murderer.
The other families all received the news last night and were discussing it privately.
Many people guessed that it was the people from the Song family who escaped. After all, in Mo City, they were the only ones who had an irreconcilable feud with the Qin family.
It is said that among those Song family members who escaped, several were warriors.
Because the Song family committed treason, all the warriors and guards in their mansion would suffer as well.
Since it's a dead end anyway, they might risk their lives to fight the Qin family to the death.
While many family members were sighing, they were actually gloating and preparing to watch the excitement of the Qin family.
I thought that with the collapse of the Song family, the Qin family would naturally re-enter the list of the four major families in Mo City. Who knew that things were far from over.
No one wants others to live better than themselves.
In fact, most people are happy to see others in trouble.
In the palace next to the City Lord's Mansion.
The eldest princess Nangong Huoyue, wearing a fiery red dress, was sitting at the table, repeatedly watching the first few rounds of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" brought by Miss Qin Er.
When Ye Yi came in to report the tragedy that happened at the Qin family last night, Nangong Huoyue put down the story in her hand, turned to look at her and said, "What a coincidence, all the warriors of the Song family actually ran away. Didn't you catch any of them?"
After a pause, she suddenly ordered, "Ye Yi, take my token and go outside the city to mobilize two hundred silver cavalrymen to enter the city."
Ye Yi raised her head and said, "Your Highness, are you asking Silver Cavalry to help track down the murderer and those people from the Song family?"
Nangong Huoyue said calmly: "No need, just let them come and guard outside the City Lord's Mansion."
There was a hint of doubt in Ye Yi's eyes, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions and immediately retreated.
Nangong Huoyue thought for a moment, then said to the outside: "Yuewu, go to the Qin Mansion and bring Miss Qin Er here. Remember, use our own carriage and guards."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Yuewu bowed and retreated.
Nangong Huoyue looked back at the story of the Three Kingdoms on the rice paper on the table, and a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth: "Intrigue and deception, the Three Kingdoms struggle for hegemony?"
